Thanks for the reply. Is there a rough ETA already?
I am digging deeper and deeper and understanding more and more of Strapi. May be at some point I can also contribute in the furture. For now I am trying to avoid touching the core files, but I already came pretty far with several workarounds that implement features/modifications at runtime via client side JS. E.g. Conditional fields, left sidebar optimizations (Menus better using the available real estate, preventing scrollbars, filtering items etc.). I consider this approach proof of concepts to find out what I really need and how it should work from my perspective. Great fun so far. So keep up the amazing work!
